The person installing this equipment should have: Training in the 700 Logix SERIES controllers and water conditioner installation Knowledge of water conditioning and how to determine proper CONTROL settings Basic plumbing skills The directional instructions "left" and right" are determined by looking at the front of the INFORMATIONE lectricalThere are no user-serviceable parts in the AC adapter, motor, or controller.

2 In the event of a failure, these should be replaced: All electrical connections must be completed according to local codes. Use only the power AC adapter that is supplied. The power outlet must be grounded. To disconnect power, unplug the AC adapter from its power Do not use petroleum based lubricants such as petroleum jelly, oils, or hydrocarbon based lubricants. Use only 100% silicone lubricants. All plastic connections should be hand tightened. Plumber's tape may be used on connections that do not use an O-ring seal. Do not use pliers or pipe wrenches. All plumbing must be completed according to local codes. Soldering near the drain line should be done before connecting the drain line to the valve. Excessive heat will cause interior damage to the valve. Do not use lead-based solder for sweat solder connections. The drain line must be a minimum of 1/2" diameter. Use 3/4" pipe if the backwash flow rate is greater than 5 GPM ( Lpm) or the pipe length is greater than 20 feet (6 m).

3 Do not support the weight of the system on the CONTROL valve fittings, plumbing, or the Keep the media tank in the upright position. Do not turn on side, upside down, or drop. Turning the tank upside down will cause media to enter the valve. Operating ambient temperature is between 34 F (1 C) and 120 F (49 C). Operating water temperature is between 34 F (1 F) and 100 F (38 C). Working water pressure range is 20 to 125 psi ( to bar). In Canada the acceptable working water pressure range is 20 to 100 psi ( to bar). Use only regenerant salts designed for water softening. Do not use ice melting, block, or rock salts. Follow state and local codes for water testing. Do not use water that is micro-biologically unsafe or of unknown quality. When filling media tank, do not open water valve completely. Fill tank slowly to prevent media from exiting the tank. When installing the water connection (bypass or manifold) connect to the plumbing system first.

4 Allow heated parts to cool and cemented parts to set before installing any plastic parts. Do not get primer or solvent on O-rings, nuts, or the PROPOSITION 65 WARNINGWARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive AUTOTROL 742/762 CONTROL 255 & PERFORMA SERIES VALVES (263, 268, 268FA) Service ManualLOGIX SERIES INSTALLER QUICK-START SHEETL ogix SERIES ControllersSee "Determining If You Have A 742 Or 762 CONTROL " on page 20 to identify your Controller - Electronic time clock CONTROL capable of doing 7-day (day ofweek) regeneration, or up to a 99 interval day regeneration.

The controller will verify that the turbine works and the self test will finish. Proceed with the initial start up Start-up Step-by-step InstructionsStep 1: Select Valve TypeThis step may have been performed by your system s OEM manufacturer. In this case, proceed to step 2. Identify your valve body type by looking at the silver ID sticker on the back or side of the valve body.
